Zunia, N. M.—To a prairie dog and
a Zuni Indian belongs the credit for
discovery of two ancient kivas or cere
A
monial chambers of prehistoric Indian
life in western New Mexico. Valuable
relics were discovered which it is be
lieved may throw additional light on
earliest civilization in this country.
The find was made while Frank W.
Hodge, an archaeologist of New York,
and a Zuni Indian were making exca
vations at the old abandoned village ,
of -Havviku in southwestern McKinley
county. The Indian noticed human
bones in the loose dirt around the
freshly dug habita^ of a prairie dog.
»
Pursuing the dog’s underground course
with a shovel he came to the remain
der of the. skeleton and then to a fine l
piece of prehistoric masonry which led
him into the kivas.
Mr. Hodge draws the conclusion that !
the kivas were the work of Indians
from the San Juan district of Colorado
rather than of the Zuuis of this sec- j
i
tion. The masonry was welt preserved ’
and not at all like the careless work i
of the Zunis. The structure was more
like the ruins in the Aztec, Mesa Verde '
and Chaco canyon.
Houses built on the kivas were ap
parently the work of later peoples. Ten 1
burials that were unearthed, Mr. '
Hodge believes, were those of Zunis
